Garden Prep 20241016
Oct17
This is a 90 second timelapse (x10) video of prepping the garden for fall planting of garlic.
This is VegBed #2 and it is 4’x24′ or approx 96 ft^2.
The previous day we had dumped 4 wheelbarrel loads of compost onto it. This day was to turn the soil over and rake it smooth to make it ready for the dibbler we use to plant garlic cloves.
The big tiller cannot get up and into the bed, so it has to be done by hand.
We did find four more potatos from this years previous harvest 🙂
We have had a few nights of hard (-3C or colder) frost so are planning to plant this Saturday 2024 October 19th, when the highs are expected to be around +15C
We also managed to acquire four straw bales from a local supplier, which will be used to cover the garlic for the winter.
